INSIDE: How to make an easy DIY spring yarn wreath using faux yellow daffodils. Easy springtime front door wreath decor.
So, I have a first world problem for you… Which holiday do you decorate for when St. Patrick’s Day and Easter fall back-to-back to each other? I tend to go with which holiday has the greater number of items stuffed in a storage box in the garage! And that tends to be all things hippity hoppity.
This springtime project came about when unpacking that Easter decoration box. There, I found a bag of faux daffodils. I cannot remember how I came to be the lucky owner of these fake daffodils but they were clearly packed away for some crafty purpose.
So to get the most enjoyment out of those plastic eggs and fluffy bunnies, I quickly transformed a dollar store shamrock wreath into something better suited for spring…

Make Easy, Pretty Spring Yarn Wreath with Faux Daffodils
As I unpacked that Easter box, I also unpacked a bag a faux daffodil heads. No stems; just the flower heads. I’m pretty sure my creative 8-year old had something to do with why I was staring at a bag of flower heads. And that’s how I found myself swapping out shamrocks for spring daffodils.
Supplies:
– Foam wreath
– Green yarn
– Yellow faux daffodil flowers
– Straight pins
– Ribbon
How to Make Spring Yarn Wreath with Faux Daffodils
As I learned when first creating the dollar store St. Patrick’s Day wreath, I had a great (albeit not-so-well-thought-out) idea to wrap the entire foam wreath form with the green yarn. Until I realized how time-consuming this would be. Scratch that.
Instead, I haphazardly covered the wreath with yarn, leaving much of the white foam exposed.

Use straight pins to secure the daffodil (heads) to one side of the wreath.
Arrange the daffodils in a whimsical manner.
Leave a section daffodil-free and wrap a large and colorful ribbon around the wreath and make a bow.

What a fun combination of the foam wreath with the flowers! So pretty! I love the way you did the yarn too.
Fun! We don’t see yellow and green together enough.
Fun wreath. It could work with spring AND St Patrick’s Day!
I’m glad it’s not just me! I found a grocery bag full of beheaded yellow daisies when I was cleaning out my craft room, lol. I guess the craft fairy leaves us gifts! (Or we have shopnesia.) Cute wreath!
Glad I’m not the only one Marie!
Very pretty! I love daffodils.
This is so creative. I love this wreath. I think we should use it during Christmas as well, instead of limiting it for the Spring. What do you think?
You’re right! Change out the bow and/or flowers and it’s perfect year-round.
